Must-Haves: New “MGS: Peace Walker” Edition headset by Astro

Just a few days ago we wrote about companies affiliating themselves with high-end manufacturers, and here’s another great example by one of those very companies. Astro Gaming, in conjunction with Konami Productions, have just announced that they will start shipping their MGS: Peace Walker Edition A30 headsets today, June 8. The A30 boasts many awesome features for the all-around gamer who is looking for a quality headset. Having tried Astro’s equipment before, I can tell you that the clarity and comfort is well worth the price tag of $149.95 if communication and sound are integral to your gameplay, especially when you combine it with their Mixamp.

“Our new ASTRO A30s have entirely reinvented what gamers expect from a modern, mobile-fluent headset. Whether at home tearing up some multiplayer, traveling with a MP3 player or on the go with a favorite handheld gaming device, the A30s deliver superior audio and voice communication and still manage to look good doing it,” explains Brett Lovelady, Founder of ASTRO Gaming. “And, what better way to demonstrate the A30s capabilities than with Konami’s upcoming Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker for the PlayStation Portable, which is going to completely transform what gamers expect from a handheld game.”

When you buy your A30, you can purchase MGS: Peace Walker (PSP) for only $20, as opposed to the retail $39.99. You’ll also be able to choose from three different frame colors: white, black and silver.
